Have you ever wondered why the Penton Owners Group's newsletter is titled " Still....Keeping Track "? As surly a good many of you do know, back in the day Penton put out a newsletter titled " Keeping Track ", which was touted on the front cover as being the " Penton Owners Monthly News Happening ". During the formation meetings of the Penton Owners Group, one of the discussions centered around the POG newsletter with a couple of different titles being suggested, such as Knobby News. In due time " Still ....Keeping Track " was chosen.
Matt Weisman was the creative genius behind " Keeping Track ", with his equally creative wife Barbera lending her talents as needed. The December of 1974 issue of " Keeping Track " was one of several issues that featured Barb's handiwork on the front cover. If you look on the bottom right of the cover you will see B. Weisman.
If you would like to see what was going on in the world of Penton Imports and the Penton Sportcycles 51 years ago, click on the link below and spend some time reading this issue. You will surely recognize a few of the names, and just maybe you are mentioned as well. I spoke with Matt and Barb Weisman just a few days ago and they both speak so very highly of their involvement with John Penton and his endeavors indicating that those days were some of the best of their lives. So, grab your morning coffee and click on the link below for a trip back in time.
PS Be sure to try your hand at the word puzzle near the end of the newsletter.
